GAMBIA – G Wellness Company Limited, a subsidiary of MP Trading Group, has announced a strategic partnership with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest hotel franchising company, to introduce the first internationally branded resort in Banjul, The Gambia.

This landmark collaboration will see the debut of the Ramada by Wyndham brand in the West African nation, marking a pivotal moment for The Gambia’s burgeoning tourism and hospitality industry.
